A Tennessee family was allegedly threatened with fines by their homeowners’ association to remove the generator that was heating their house, as the neighborhood was plunged into darkness during below-freezing temperatures. Talia Caravello said she was told that her generator didn’t comply with the aesthetic code of her townhouse in the Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood of Nashville when she lost electricity during a brutal ice storm on Sunday, according to WSMV. Caravello purchased a $1,500 generator, extension cords and space heaters to keep her family warm as indoor temperatures dropped to 30 degrees following the storm that left four people dead.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom delivered a rambling rant attacking President Trump’s executive order aimed at speeding up wildfire rebuilding efforts.
“He hasn’t coordinated or connected with anyone,” Newsom said at an event in San Diego on Monday.

The United Nations is going broke and needs member nations to stump up cash. Lots of it. That is the plea from Secretary-General António Guterres who fears the globalist body is at risk of “imminent financial collapse” due to member states not paying their fees.
The former leader of the Portuguese Socialist Party said Friday the U.N. faces a financial crisis which was “deepening, threatening programme delivery” and money could run out as soon as July leaving the unaccountable globalist cabal destitute.
Such is the financial drama unfolding at U.N. headquarters in Geneva, signs warning of the situation have reportedly been put up everywhere.

Driver’s license tests in Florida will be administered only in English starting Feb. 6, the state Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles announced Friday.
“This change applies to all driver license classifications, including exams administered orally,” said state officials in a news release.
Currently, exams for most non-commercial driver classifications are offered in English, Spanish and Haitian Creole.
The department has updated its driver’s license testing system statewide, and language-translation services won’t be allowed for knowledge or skills examinations, the release said.
The 98th Academy Awards will take place on March 15, 2026. While it is too late to create a new category for the Awards, there is one gaining recognition due to the actors who have so far qualified for a nomination. The category is for the best performance by a Somali immigrant seeking to pull the wool over the eyes of the American public. Several of these nominees have displayed their talents at press conferences. Let us examine some of these performances:

Disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested in Los Angeles early Friday over the anti-ICE protest that stormed a Minneapolis church during Sunday service, according to his attorney and US Attorney General Pamela Bondi.
“Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents … in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards,” Lemon’s attorney Abbe Lowell said in a statement shared with multiple reporters.
He was one of four people arrested by federal agents early Friday “in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota,” Bondi later confirmed in a statement.
China’s infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), ground zero for the worldwide Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, has offered to help India contain an outbreak of the dangerous Nipah virus, even as Indian officials claim the outbreak is coming under control.
Researchers at the WIV claim they have developed a treatment for Wuhan coronavirus, an orally-administered anti-viral drug called VV116, that is also a “promising candidate for treating the Nipah virus.” [snip] The Nipah virus is one of the most dangerous infections on the planet, with a fatality rate of between 40% and 70%, according to the World Health Organization (W.H.O.).
Capitol Hill Republicans are nervously chattering amongst themselves about whether Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem could be the first member of President Donald Trump’s second-term Cabinet headed for the exit.
They’re looking in the wrong direction: They should be focused on whether they’re headed for the exits, too.
The big question facing Republicans in Washington and across the country isn’t who should run DHS, but how they can respond to the obvious questions about how Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol agents are doing their jobs.
Coming up with an answer that satisfies voters could decide whether November’s midterm elections allows Trump to continue his transformative agenda
We’re a little over a month into an industry-wide conversation about the future of tech in California, which is largely taking place off social media. At this point, most people know the conversation was triggered by a ballot proposition floated by the state’s largest health care union that seeks to legalize a first-of-its-kind asset seizure targeting (for now) billionaires.
Over the last week, I spoke with 21 billionaires about the looming prospect of a wealth tax. We discussed whether they left or are planning to leave California (most of them are), what a wealth tax means for the technology industry, and finally how, if at all, they plan to fight back.
An unhinged Virginia nurse who encouraged medical professionals to drug ICE agents with paralytic meds was swiftly canned.
Malinda Cook, a nurse anesthetist at Virginia Commonwealth University Health, was fired by the hospital on Tuesday after she spewed the disturbing remarks in a spate of TikTok videos.
Cook, who was identified by local media, blasted out her so-called “sabotage” tactics as anti-ICE riots exploded across the country. “Sabotage tactic, or at least scare tactic. All the medical providers, grab some syringes with needles on the end,” the nurse said on one clip spreading on social media.
“Have them full of saline or succinylcholine, you know, whatever. Whatever.
It's perfectly legal to travel, even by airplane, with a firearm. I tend to avoid it because it's such a pain in the posterior, but I don't fly a lot anyway. Professional athletes, however, do fly a good bit, especially during the season.

In the wake of the report, officials representing National Landscapes - including the Cotswolds and Chilterns - have now published a series of management plans that detail their proposals to attract more minority communities. The Chiltern National Landscape will launch an outreach programme in Luton and High Wycombe targeted at Muslims.

A 2020 election scandal in Fulton County, Georgia's most populous county, continues to grow with new derails revealed in a State Election Board (SEB) meeting last Wednesday -- and now, a week later, with an FBI raid seeking election documents from the county. (snip) When a ballot scanner is used to count ballots, election officials must start the process by printing and signing a "zero tape," which confirms the count started at zero.

Washington — Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify in the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, ahead of expected votes in the House later this week on holding the pair in contempt of Congress.

An unsettling scene unfolded on Minneapolis streets over the weekend as anti-ICE activists turned public roadways into impromptu checkpoints and blockades -- while Minneapolis police at one point looked on and walked away. Social media videos show agitators blocking streets with furniture and stopping cars in Minneapolis -- even apparently cross-referencing plates against a database of ICE vehicles before letting drivers through. (snip) When Minneapolis police officers approached and urged [a] group to move [an] obstruction "for fire trucks and ambulances," the protesters didn't budge (snip) and officers eventually left (snip.)
Democrats in the Washington state legislature are pushing a proposal that establishes a list of demographic groups that are presumed to be “socially disadvantaged” for the purposes of state business certification. Based on the breadth of those categories, roughly 70 percent of Washington state residents would fall under the bill’s definition of “socially disadvantaged.” Under existing statute, the Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE) defines a “socially disadvantaged individual” as someone who has experienced racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias within American society due to group identity, stemming from circumstances beyond the individual’s control. The agency may also determine social disadvantage on a case-by-case basis.
I'm Just two years ago, Mary Barra, chief executive of General Motors, declared: “We believe in an all-electric future.” She went on to claim that the challenges her company was facing in the EV market were merely temporary bumps on the road to net zero. But as Bob Dylan famously observed, things have changed. On Jan. 8, GM announced it would take a $7.1 billion hit in charges against its earnings, of which $6 billion is due to Barra’s failed EV strategy. In a filing with the SEC, the company also warned that it would take more write-downs this year as part of a “strategic realignment of EV capacity.”
The Abigail Spanberger Bait-and-Switch
19 replies
During the 2025 gubernatorial election the voters of Virginia believed they were choosing between pragmatic Democrat Rep. Abigail Spanberger and lackluster Republican Lieutenant Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears. The former was well funded and portrayed favorably by the corporate “news” media as a centrist, while the latter struggled to raise money and was labeled an extremist because of her strong support of gun rights. Spanberger won by double digits and most Virginians thought they were getting a slightly more liberal governor than her predecessor, Glenn Youngkin. Yet the moment she took office, it became obvious that Gov. Spanberger was no moderate.
Maine Democrats have been calling for over a year for the release of more files related to the infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, but the disclosures may have caused some collateral damage for Democratic Gov. Janet Mills, candidate for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination. The sensational allegations against Gov. Mills surfaced Friday in a trove of documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice as a part of its ongoing disclosure of materials related to the investigation into Epstein's sex-trafficking and espionage ring. (snip) An anonymous tipster alleges that Mills was "instrumental" in covering up child sexual abuse and was "credibly named" in cocaine trafficking.

The Bay Area is experiencing mobs of bicycle riders stopping to attack and seriously injure drivers who provoke their wrath, while riding around in large groups that the cyclists call “ride outs.” ABC7News (KGO Television) reports:
A Santa Clara driver suffered fractures to his ribs and back after a mob of bicyclists brutally assaulted him following an accident involving one of them.
This is the latest in a string of violent incidents involving large groups of bicyclists, popularly known as “ride outs”, a rapidly growing trend where large, often informal groups of cyclists -- from dozens to thousands -- gather to ride through city streets.
The Trump administration has quietly decided to allow employers to import 65,000 extra H-2B visa migrants for jobs that would otherwise pay decent wages to ordinary American who vote in the midterm elections. The visa giveaway is part of President Trump’s zig-zagging between the two sides of his coalition — the voters he needs on election day, and the business donors who provide the funds for political campaigns. Meanwhile, the national media is ignoring the visa giveaway to business because it is focused on the left-wing street groups who are trying to block the deportation of criminal and wage-cutting illegal migrants from Minneapolis.
Donald Trump threatened Monday to begin legal action against “loser” Trevor Noah after the comedian said the president visited convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s island and needs it again to “hang out” with Bill Clinton. The South African provided no evidence for the allegation which has been dismissed outright as a lie and fabrication by Trump.
After congratulating Billie Eilish for winning the Grammy for Song of the Year for her track “Wildflower,” host Noah brought up his Trump and Epstein allegation.
“Wow. That’s a Grammy that every artist wants — almost as much as Trump wants Greenland,” he quipped, referring to the president’s efforts regarding the Arctic territory.
A Minnesota Democratic Party official is urging people on social media to "act neutral" to get seated on a jury and vote to acquit a woman accused of biting off a federal agent's finger tip. Nick Kruse is former vice president of the Minnesota Young DFL and current at-large director of Stonewall DFL. In a Jan. 26 post on X, Kruse wrote that "no one should be going to prison for defending our city against ICE," and encouraged followers to spread information about "jury nullification."

Personally, I wouldn't touch an HOA with a Quran.
I see no reason to forbid a generator if the Gov proclaims an emergency, even if it doesn't comply with 'the aesthetic code'.
